PCSX2 BETA 720 /
PCSX2 BETA 720 Plug-Ins
Changelog:
• Improved block managers for EE/IOP recompilers. Basic asm optimizations combined with a technique of replacing NULL/invalid pointer checks with a direct link to a JIT dispatcher.
• IOP Fixes and Optimizations
• A couple of important VIF fixes
• Started some work on the pcsx2 emitter
• Usual opcodes fixes
• More recompiled opcodes added
• New EE rec "full" clamp mode, for a few picky games
• Usual code cleanups and reorganizations
• Usual speed optimizations (varies from game to game)
• Some EE interpreters fixes
• Added new, temporary gamefix for God of war and persona 3. If you have missing textures with this beta, you can try that.
• Major GUI API Cleanups
• Savestate version upgrade and stability fix
• New yuv2rgb decoder which is up to IPU spec (which differs slightly from MPEG spec). Improves color hue/saturation on many vids, and is a bit faster too.
• Many other small bugfixes and optimizations
Also included, gsdx, spu2-x and lilypad as of 9th of march 2009. Don't expect huge gains, as always.
I watched the broadcast and it does have a lot of cool features, but the biggest problem is that those features will require and Xbox live gold member...
Much cheaper to buy then the ps2 controller, but as long as it will work on this emulator would be nice.
